When the draw was revealed for the Monte Carlo Open it's a fair bet Jordan Thompson decided to give the Principality's famous casino a miss for the week, as his luck clearly wasn't in.
His second round pairing was with Stefanos Tsitsipas, who had a 20-3 record on the red clay of Monaco and had won three of the last four events.
But Thompson is not one to be fazed by a bad draw, and he gave the Greek a fright before losing 4-6 6-4 6-2 in just over two hours.
